I heard that Age of Decadence is very good.
Why did they choose 3d graphics though?
It looks like Neverwinter Nights, which is 14 years old and as all early 2000s games aged horribly.

Holy shit have you even PLAYED NWN?
The graphics arent the best, yes, but man, NWN was blocky as fuck.

Very good roleplaying, I wouldeven risk saying it's the best RPG in terms of actuall roleplaying to date.

It's pretty faulty in other areas, I did enjoy the combat though, it gives you just enough options and is challenging enough to be fun.

>Why did they choose 3d graphics though?
They started with Torque engine before Unity was a thing and it was too late to switch later on.

>It looks like Neverwinter Nights
Looks better.

>which is 14 years old
AoD was in development for 10 years, go figure.

to satisfy graphic whores (a decade ago) and because the lead guy thought 2d isometric wouldn't sell.

you are exaggerating.

Arterial strikes are superior for most weapons if you level CS.

I've tried playing Assassin, but I have no idea how to distribute my stats and skills

what should I opt for? Dodge, Dagger and CS?

No social skills whatsoever? It feels lacking, and I've died 3 times already in that little ambush in the hovel

Your main skills should be Critical Strike, Daggers, Dodge and Sneak. Then save up some points and use them when necessary to succeed in checks.

The easiest way to play this game is to have a constant pool of skill points that you can expend depending on the situation.

Appreciate it, anon. Thanks.

>>343910920

they still going with 3d shit in their new game though.
>>
>>343912124
Sneak isn't even necessary.

Disguise is a nice alternative.

>>343912532
They're a small studio. You are insane if you think they would be able to pull off actually good looking 2D. At best you would end up with pixelshit on the level of Bastard Bonds, but even that consumes shitloads of time and effort and Vince isn't the kind of guy to blow his budget and manhours on graphics.
